You should try www.ScraplessBooks.com --they are the best when it comes to digital Storybooking.

It is all online, no software to download. You can start from scratch with a blank book, or use one of hundreds of professionally designed templates with any and every theme imaginable.

With a template, the entire book is pretty much already designed for you, but has spaces left out for your own pictures and text. Also, templates can be changed, they are not permenant--if you don't like the particular button or ribbon or whatever, you can delete it or exchange it for something else.

This is also much cheaper than a traditional scrapbook. You pay $20 for a month's use of the online library of over 60,000 pieces of artwork including backgrounds and embellishments, quotes and texts, and more. Then you pay for the book itself. The books run in all sizes and price ranges, with the 5x5 being $29.95 and the 12x12 being $79.95. And, these are not the cheap, impersonal books you find all over the internet and in every store these days either! These are quality, library bound, hand stitched, hard-back, custom books.

The price does not go by how many pictures or embellishments you use--use as much or as little as you want. Each book comes with a standard 21 pages and you pay $.99 per page after 27 pages, and each is expandable up to 99 pages.

You will not find a better, easier, better quality, cheaper way of scrapbooking. Period.

you could do many different variations....



You could start by having the first page say "all about me" or "MY LIFE", etc.... then do your pages in the order of which the events or things you want to display took place.

Or if all the things you listed above happened within the last year of your life, you could do a scrapbook called "MY LIFE- 2008" or something of the sort and then just do pages randomly as the ideas come to you.

You could incorporate all those events into each other too if you'd like. For example: If your boyfriend was a part of your accomplishments then he would be in those pics already. And if he hung out with your girls from the sorority then he'd be in some of those pages as well.

Its hard to give specific ideas because I dont have the pictures in front of me and I dont know the details that will be included. Each book is so unique and specific to the individual so you really cant go wrong. Its your own creation, and you will be very surprised that once you start, it will just come to you. Thinking about it and planning it out is always the hardest part. My suggestion to you is to just start and go in the order of which the events took place.

I hope I helped you out some. Good Luck and God Bless you.
